HANDyDriver is an open-source BLDC motor driver board designed for versatility and small size, targeted to applications in haptics and dextrous manipulation in robotics.

It is maintained by the Center for Robotics and Biosystems at Northwestern University, and supported by the National Science Foundation HAND ERC.

This project is built on KiCad; to modify or use it, install KiCad v9.0 and import HANDyDriver.kicad_pro as a project.

To contribute, please fork the repository and submit a pull request with your changes. For any questions or issues, please open an issue on the GitHub repository.

An FOC motor control library targeting the Arduino Teensy v4.0 is maintained alongside this hardware design. See the NUControl repo for more information.
